Jason's Bio

My name is Jason and I was born in Trenton, MI and raised in Brooklyn, MI. Have been a lifelong Michigan Wolverines fan and have a great disdain for anything from that armpit to the south. My own grandmother was born in Ohio and I've always held it against her. Me and a buddy shared season tickets to the Big House from 2003-2007 but since my move to Chicago in the summer of 2008 we will not be renewing. I didn't have the grades in high school or the money to go to the University of Michigan so I instead attended Central Michigan but never let the maroon and gold take over my maize and blue blood. I went to school for journalism and am now seeking a career as a sports reporter with a goal to write about anything Wolverines.

Just basically a little preview from the Michigan perspective. A few questions, about the keys to the game, player to watch, basic things. We could also bring up your new article about rivalries.

Can you hit me up with your e-mail? This way I can get you the phone number and we can talk about a time and some specifics. Like I said it will probably be a ten minute window at some point between 6-8. Appreciate it Jason!

Hey Jason

I do a radio show for a website every Thursday. I'm expanding it the program from an hour and a half to two hours and I wanted to, as bad as it could turn out, preview the Michigan/Ohio State game in some capacity. I've yet to decide how I'm going to do it, I want to find out who I can get for the game first.

Let me know if your interested.. It's from 6 to 8 PM ET on Thursday.. Like I said I'm still working out this weeks format so I'm not sure what time specifically, but it would be at most a 10 minute window.

Thanks man

Jason:

You and I talked many times about the Steelers in Park Library at CMU. I must disagree with you however on Cowher quitting. That Oakland game in his last year still bothers me and so do both Ravens games. He drove me nuts a lot but he was a great coach! As far as the line goes, they need to keep Roethlisberger healthy if they want to go anywhere. I also think that Tennessee is the best team in the NFL along with the Giants. 3 is not a bad place to be!
